Qırmızi Qəsəbə

TIME : 2016/2/18 16:23:09

Across the river from central Quba, Qırmızi Qəsəbə is a wealthy and much celebrated Jewish village with two active synagogues. Its comfortable existence is often cited as proof of Azerbaijan's history of religious tolerance, though to the casual observer the townscape's biggest difference from the rest of Quba is that of conspicuous wealth.

From Nizami Park descend the long stairway adorned by statues of Greco-Soviet Adonis youths and across the pedestrianised bridge.
